Thing 22, Share Something New

I was introduced to the Animoto app available on our Ipads. Before our winter break, my World History students selected copy free images from the internet pertaining to Christmas and the birth of Jesus. Additionally, they selected an audio clip to accompany the pictures. Using the Animoto app, each student created a slideshow including their pictures and music and presented it to the class. The app is very easy to manipulate and the students enjoyed the lesson. I was able to use this new technology in my teacher evaluation. The technology designed for our Ipads have become very valuable in our classroom and I appreciate having Mrs. Willingham as a source of information so close at hand. Written by co-teacher Cindy Boyce
